NOTE: For information on the location of LEDs and ports 
on individual interconnect modules, see the documentation 
that ships with the interconnect module. 
 
1.  Install the interconnect modules based on the number ordered 
and the number of fabrics in the configuration. 
The enclosure ships with interconnect bay dividers installed. The 
interconnect bay dividers must be removed before installing 
double-wide interconnect modules. To remove an interconnect 
bay divider, press the release tab, and pull the interconnect bay 
divider out of the enclosure. 
 
2.  Install interconnect blanks in any unused interconnect bays. 
3.  Connect each installed interconnect module to the external 
connections with the appropriate cable. 
 
Powering up the enclosure 
Single-phase power configuration 
For a single phase power configuration: 
1.  Connect the AC power cables to the power connectors on the 
rear of the enclosure corresponding to the power supply that was 
populated on the front of the enclosure. 
2.  Be sure each power cable is securely attached to the power 
connectors. 
3.  Connect the AC power cables to the AC power source or to an 
installed power distribution unit (PDU). 
4.  Turn on the AC circuit breakers that power the power cables 
installed in the enclosure. 
5.  Locate the power retention bracket that came with the enclosure. 
6.  Verify that the power cord retention tabs are on the correct side. 
o  On the left side: To install the power cord retention bracket 
on the left side of the enclosure, ensure the power cord 
retention tabs are located to the right of the snap clamps. 
o  On the right side: To install the power cord retention bracket 
on the right side of the enclosure, ensure the power cord 
retention tabs are located on the left side of the snap clamps. 
 
7.  Place the power cord retention bracket under the power cords, 
and then align the power cords with the snap clamps. 
8.  Open the snap clamps, and then insert each power cord inside 
each clamp. 
9.  Slide the power cord retention bracket until the bracket touches 
the enclosure.
